Regarding care for people in vulnerable situations, Marta Elena Feitó stressed that employment constitutes the greatest protection for a physically and mentally fit citizen, and in the case of being young, options should be offered for incorporation into the study. Hence, she pondered the importance of having each of these cases identified at the community level and of providing, in the first order, job opportunities and improvement that can contribute to the family economy. These people could be offered the possibility of carrying out tasks in their own community, in correspondence with local needs and interests, the Minister considered.
Subsequently, Esteban Lazo toured district 90, of the Electric People’s Council, in order to verify, on the ground, several transformation actions carried out.

In turn, he visited the medical office of this territory, where he urged not to neglect the health protocols before COVID-19 and to strengthen the prevention and confrontation of dengue, based on the permanent analysis of the epidemiological situation of the popular council, the realization of the focal work, the immediate attention of the cases and the sanitation strategy in the area.
Despite the complexities of the national scenario, a clear principle is not to stop at the work in the neighborhoods, with participation, collective contribution and creativity of the Havana people in this sense; aware of what we still have to do, but also how much progress we have made, said Reinaldo García Zapata.
Later, the President of the Cuban legislature debated with inhabitants and delegates, and toured different social works, in constituency 10 of the Moro-Portocarrero neighborhood, and in the Comodoro neighborhood.
